Maybe puzzles? I’m not sure whether that’s what you’re going for, but it could fit.

Generally students will get financial aid and scholarships that cover much of the cost of tuition, especially if they’re from a lower income family. I’m guessing that, as an international student from a wealthier family, your son didn’t quality for much aid. Tuition is also generally lower for residents of the state, which he also wouldn’t qualify as.

Even with all that it’s still incredibly expensive and lots of people end up having to take out large loans or work jobs while in college to cover the cost.

A plastic bag in a metal container sounds about as sanitary as it gets. It’s far better to keep the tea in a sterile bag until it’s needed rather than pouring it into another, potentially contaminated, container and storing it there.

Not a FLAC, but I tried it on this video by reencoding to an mp3 at 320 kbps, then subtracting the original, amplified it a bit, and got this. The song is definitely recognizable, but heavily distorted.

You can always have a burner “secure” device for official business, and a privacy-respecting device for everything else.

Yep, SSD latency is measured in tens of microseconds. To achieve that kind of latency with a cloud service, you’d need it to be just a few kilometers away or the light propagation delay alone becomes too great.

Yep, most to least significant is great because you can sort dates temporally with a numeric/string sort.

I did bring killing Hitler up, and they said that’s justified because things are different in times of war. Didn’t really feel like arguing with them any more than that lol.

My parents think it’s immoral to kill someone, even if they’re indirectly murdering thousands of people. Can’t agree on everything, I guess…

Yep, and if you do manage to make someone pass out they’ll probably just end up dying.

Just wait until they find out actual chloroform is easy to get ahold of for a few bucks from any chemical supplier.

Bring back RTGs! They’ve already proven their use in pacemakers.

I’ve heard good things about privacy.sexy.

Microsoft bad and all, but is this really a good fit for the pics community?

Technically speaking with enough power you’d start burning yourself, which would probably increase your risk of cancer. Of course the radiation from your laptop is orders of magnitude below what is required to cause burns, and so any that happens to be absorbed by your body is dissipated harmlessly as heat.

Not really. A word with every meaning is meaningless itself, since it doesn’t allow you to narrow down the word’s intended meaning from the set of all possible meanings.

There’s still the cost associated with having your transaction stored forever on the blockchain across millions(?) of devices, but it’s only a few dozen bytes so the impact isn’t much.

Maybe they were talking about the 2016 election? He got about 63M votes then.

we should live die there

You’d notice if it happened on/near your retina, it was very dark, and you were paying attention. Other than that I don’t think you’re going to notice.
